My Space-Time System

Chapter 422

Chapter 422: [Bonus chapter]Breaching the castle walls.

Seeing that no attack was hitting their marks, the commander instructed some of the ash corps on the wall to start firing spells below the walls, just in case they were already climbing.

Unknown to them, the moment the competition started, Luciano who was in possession of a void dagger used the wind element to fly up with Castiel who kept him concealed.

When they got to a high enough altitude, Blake opened up a spatial corridor which warped the 3 of them to the top. On appearing at the top, they conjured mana barriers which they landed on before conjuring more as they walked toward the wall.

The hero realm of the darkness element was Shadow walker. They had the ability to move from one shadow to another and create a shadow domain that slowed down the movement speed of the opponent.

They could now create illusions and could now warp from one location to another in Night mist. Also, their attacks and spells had chances of inducing fear to the opponent.

‘It’s not their fault that they think we are below.’ Blake thought as the 5 of them made their way onto the outer wall of the castle.

[I must say, this was actually a nice formation, but they didn’t expect things to take this route.] The system said as they saw ash corps with mounted weapons at the inner wall.

.....

If they had taken a direct approach and somehow managed to get on the wall, not only would they be fighting the ash corps at the outer wall, but they would also have to be evading the attacks from those stationed at the inner wall.

The worst part was that unlike the weapons at the outer wall which were more of AOE attacks, those at the inner wall were precision-type weapons that eliminated chances of friendly fire.

‘Good for us then.’ Blake said.

Since the ash corps stationed at the inner wall hadn’t spotted any enemy that breached the wall, they had no reason to attack, allowing Blake and his team to move across both walls and enter the main courtyard.

They soon reached the wooden double door of the castle, before using mana vision to see that it was packed with different kinds of traps and alarms.

“The arrays are not that difficult to disable, it would just take some time.” Serhan said.

“That is exactly why we shouldn’t try to disable it. I suggest we look for another entrance like a window.”

Blake felt something was wrong because one of the arrays on the wooden double door produced heat in order to prevent the system’s heat vision from seeing through.

Apart from that, not only could opening such a large door be spotted, but there was a high chance that there was a mechanical trap behind it, or even an ash corp.

“I agree with Blake, going through the front door in an infiltration isn’t ideal.” Luciano said.

With that, the group left the door and in less than a minute they spotted a window on the 1st floor of the castle.

“Just like I thought.” Blake said while looking at the window with mana vision.

The windows had way more arrays protecting it than the front door, meaning that it was actually a trap.

Blake wasted no time in disabling the arrays in such a speed that flabbergasted Damon, Serhan and everyone watching.

As for Luciano and Castiel they were not surprised because this wasn’t the first time they were seeing it.

Back at their 1st semester exam which had them exploring a ruin, Blake was the reason they disabled the countless traps and had gotten to the end way before others.

Once the arrays were disabled, the window lock opened and the group made their way into the castle.

“The problem now is locating the room with the flag.” Blake said with mana vision still active.

From what they saw at the door, they were not taking any chances because one mistake could bring the attention of more than 50 ash corps on them.

...

At the other side of the battle.

When the signal had been given, 2 members of team 1 from the north created a mist that blocked the sight of ash corps on the wall. Nonetheless, the commander instructed the ash cops to fire at them.

After more than 5 minutes of firing, not only were they no casualties but all the members of the team were still present, or so they thought.

The name of the Hero realm of the water element was Siren. They had the ability to create and control mists to form illusions.

When inside water, their body anatomy changed, giving them gills and web feet that granted them great movement speed under water.

In addition to their water spells having more explosive power, Siren’s had the ability to heal wounds even though they weren’t as effective as the light element.

“We can keep doing this all day, but they can’t.” The ash corps commander said but he had no idea that they were only 3 students outside the wall.

The Nystrom twins they were currently looking at were illusions made from the mist.

The real Nystrom twins had used the light element to bend the light around them, concealing themselves.

Using their mana, they were able to climb the wall before activating artifacts that concealed their presence.

With all of these, the Nystrom twins made their way past the outer and inner wall before entering the castle through a window.

The Hero realm of the light element was Lightsworn. Apart from their ability to create illusions being boosted, they now had the ability to heal injuries and regrow limbs.

Using the light spell Revealing light, they could shatter illusions and camouflage spells. That included the concealing effects that of night mist and darkbringer.

They also had the ability to shoot out lasers, but even at the light element was still considered to be a support element.
